[So cool.]
[I feel like I just got shown up.]
[Boss, are you really this confident?]
[I’m starting to look forward to this, and I’m a little nervous too.]
[Don’t let it be all talk and no action!]
Miss Number Eleven finished her speech.
Before Li Xu clicked the microphone, she cleared her throat.
“Player Number Twelve speaking. Number Ten is Gold Water. Bad news, I’m speaking from the last seat and just got checked and killed.”
“Good news, I’ve found one confirmed Werewolf and two suspected Werewolves.” Her tone was calm, her logic clear, and her words organized, making her badge flow completely clear.
If Number One was simply playing by feel, with a sunny and moving way of speaking, then as soon as Li Xu’s steady voice came through the microphone, it made people want to switch sides—it was just too calm and composed.
Not a hint of a Werewolf’s panic or pretentiousness.
Miss Number Eleven heard Li Xu say just two sentences and immediately gave up.
In the Werewolf Kill badge segment, giving up after hearing the Prophet’s speech means supporting this Prophet.
This game is all about listening to speeches and following your instincts. When identities aren’t revealed, everyone is guessing who the True Prophet is.
Players all agree: the Prophet card, who can’t prove their identity and is doubted by everyone, is the most nerve-wracking “Sunzi Card” in the game.
From the start, they’re destined to try to win everyone over.
But Li Xu was clearly not a Sunzi Card—Vidong thought—her speech, as the True Prophet, made everyone else the Sunzi.
[Crushing from a higher dimension.]
[……………… She killed it the moment she started speaking.]
In her 120-second speech, she never repeated herself. Even players who didn’t play Werewolf Kill could understand the relationships between the players from her words.
There were eight players competing for the badge, each with their own style, but Li Xu used her calm tone to analyze the connections between their speeches, and pointed out that there were likely multiple Werewolves among the contenders.
With her tone shifting smoothly, she had already transformed from the accused Werewolf into the ironclad Prophet.
Vidong’s mind was racing, trying desperately to find any flaw in Li Xu’s words, but he found, with despair, that every single thing Li Xu said—every word, even her emotions and state—was flawless.
She was like a perfect “war machine.”
So Vidong tried to see if Li Xu was taking notes, maybe opening a memo app to jot down key points, but he realized that when Li Xu spoke into her phone, she never looked at any notes or cheat sheets.
After analyzing the relationships at the table and Number One’s fighting mentality, she began to win people over.
“Number Five is leaning good for me.” Hearing this, Number Five gave up.
“Number Eight, turn around.” As soon as she finished, Number Eight gave up.
“Number Ten is Gold Water.” Vidong gave up immediately too.
As she spoke, the others started giving up in droves.
Only the Werewolf teammates trying to act against her were still stubbornly hanging on, trying to challenge the True Prophet.
“The chance of Number Two being a Werewolf is…” As she finished, Number Two gave up too.
“Alright.
All good guys, vote for me.”
***
She ended her speech with these simple words. No sarcasm after being accused, no forced cheerfulness, even her call for votes was calm.
But the calmer she was, the better she seemed—her logic was damn tight, her voice damn nice, and her words damn composed.
Vidong admitted that at that moment, he felt a kind of awe.
A rookie’s admiration for a pro.
Even Li Xu’s face behind those sunglasses seemed sacred to him now.
Sure enough, after Li Xu finished her speech and the voting began—of the four people not in the badge contest, all voted for Li Xu.
Number One, who had previously won everyone’s praise, didn’t get a single vote. The badge of Sheriff landed solidly on Li Xu’s head.
[The True God descends!]
[Welcome, True God!]
[Wow, that was awesome. Her speech was perfect, it gave me goosebumps.]
[Is this really Mao Xu’s skill?]
[B-King or whatever… this is real strength 55.]
[I’m a sapiosexual, after Mao Xu finished speaking, I feel like her attractiveness just shot up several levels.]
[Yes, looking at chubby Mao Xu now, I just think she has such delicate features.]
[Vidong must be stunned, right?]
[Vidong is frantically checking if Mao Xu is using any special plugins.]
[The streamer just started talking and instantly took down the True Prophet.]
[As expected, a woman’s mouth can deceive you. Every time I play a wolf and claim Prophet, my heart races like crazy. How can Mao Xu stay so calm? Her nerves… I really have to learn from her.]
At this moment, the first gift effect since Li Xu started streaming in the past few days appeared in the live room.
[Dongdong sent an Airplane *1]
[Dongdong sent a Rocket *1]
Li Xu: “Thank you, Dongdong, for the airplane and the rocket.”
Dongdong: [No problem, streamer! Ahhh, I’m also a Werewolf Kill player, you’re really amazing!]
Dongdong: [Listening to you speak, I feel like my breast ducts are cleared.]
Dongdong: [Love it, please stream more, if you just stream Werewolf Kill, I bet you’ll get super popular.]
Li Xu: “Thank you, but I’m just an amateur at Werewolf Kill.”
As soon as she finished, even more gift effects popped up in the live room.
Some sent airplanes, some sent rockets, and there were popularity votes, roses, and all kinds of small gifts.
Before, she hardly got any gifts during her streams, but now with this big reversal, she couldn’t even thank everyone fast enough.
[Intelligence is a woman’s best cosmetic.]
[Personality charm, too.]
[Ever since the streamer refused Zhou Yi, I knew things were going to get interesting.]
[The streamer is a treasure, haha.]
After Li Xu finished thanking the gifts, Vidong finally found a chance to ask the question he’d been dying to ask:
“How can you remember the speeches of all the players so clearly? Didn’t you use a memo or something?”
Vidong was sure Li Xu must have used some tool he didn’t know about to record the key points of each player’s speech, otherwise her logic couldn’t be so clear.
Li Xu: “What memo? I don’t have that habit.”
Vidong: “Really didn’t take notes? Then how can you remember everything they said so clearly?”
Li Xu was a bit puzzled: “Is it that hard?”
Vidong: “Isn’t it? There’s so much information!”
Li Xu: “But each of them only has one or two key points. The rest is just filler to kill time.”
vidong was still unconvinced: “But don’t you ever mix up what they said to each other?”
Li Xu: “That hasn’t happened.” Her tone was calm, stating it plainly.
But the more she spoke like this, the more it made Vidong’s teeth ache—she really was a natural-born player, and not only was her logic clear, her ability to win people over was top-notch.
Now everyone was taking turns to speak again, and almost everyone was siding with Li Xu, even those who had supported Number One before were now picking apart Number One’s mistakes.
Number One was the first to speak. Unable to accept the one-sided voting result, they started rambling, completely losing the sunny, positive attitude from before.
The next person even said: “No need to look anymore, just vote out Number One, I’m definitely with Number Twelve.”
Vidong: “So what are you going to say next? You were busy thanking gifts just now.”
In Vidong’s opinion, thanking gifts was distracting—normally, you can’t focus on two things at once.
But Li Xu was still confused: “What’s wrong with thanking gifts? I heard what they said. We’ll vote out Number One, and I’ll check Number Two. He’s obviously a Villager.”
Vidong: “Huh? You could tell that much?” Seriously, it’s like our brains are wired differently.
While he was talking to Li Xu, Vidong hadn’t even listened carefully to Number One and Number Two’s speeches.
When he heard Vidong say this, Li Xu paused for a moment, then told Vidong the key points from Number One and Number Two’s speeches, so he could just bring them up in his own speech.
How to describe how Vidong felt? It was like checking homework answers with the class genius.
Vidong wasn’t just any ordinary person. His family was well-off, he was studying abroad at a top university, and he had no interest in making online friends—he was lazy, and honestly, a bit proud.
He was smart, learned quickly, and though he called himself a game streamer, his real life was going great—a typical smart, wealthy international student who seemed obedient but actually had a rebellious streak.
But now, facing Li Xu’s “dimensional crushing,” he was starting to feel a rare sense of insecurity.
So much so that when he looked at Li Xu’s half of the screen, he felt like she was surrounded by a glowing halo.
When it was Vidong’s turn to speak, he just followed Li Xu’s advice and pointed out the key issues with Number One and Number Two.
Now, when he “lied,” he didn’t even feel guilty, and knowing Li Xu would back him up later, he even felt like he wasn’t a wolf, but a true Villager.
Sure enough, Li Xu’s next speech was as powerful as ever, dismantling the false logic without a flaw, still speaking calmly as ever.
As for Number One’s emotional outburst, she summed it up with just one line—”If it’s fake, it can’t pass as real.”
Just like that, the True Prophet was voted out.
She even told the Witch to poison Number Seven, arranging everything clearly. Her badge flow still targeted Number Two, and though the position was odd, her speech was just unbelievably strong.
Number One was voted out unanimously.
***
The next day, Number Three and Number Seven both died, Number Two was checked and killed, Li Xu didn’t flip her card, but still called out Number Two as a wolf, saying the wolf team was trying to frame her.
Except for Number Two, everyone else voted for Number Two.
That night, their last knife went to Miss Number Eleven.
The teammate wanted to knife Number Nine, but Li Xu just said, “Number Nine is the Hunter. If you shoot, you’ll take us with you,” scaring them into canceling the attack with a nervous laugh: “Boss, you do it.”
Sure enough, they attacked Number Eleven. The next day, the game basically ended.
Vidong looked at the game review: Number Two, Number Three, Number Seven, and Miss Number Eleven were all Villagers, and he fell into deep thought—
Wrong.
And Number Nine really was the Hunter.
-Li Xu didn’t miss a single identity.
[W also got crushed from a higher dimension.]
That round of Werewolf Kill lasted nearly forty minutes, and Li Xu was a bit tired.
“Alright, that’s enough for today.”
Hearing this, Vidong snapped out of it. For the first time, he felt a bit reluctant: “You’re really not playing anymore? I wanted to play a couple more rounds with you, it’s so addictive.”
Yeah, being given Gold Water by a wolf teammate, having the highest status at the table, and winning so easily—it really was addictive.
He blinked, looking like he wanted to be petted.
But Li Xu was indifferent: “No, I’m tired.” “Then Wechat………………”
Before he could finish, Li Xu’s screen went black.
Li Xu’s stream viewers: [Alright, got ghosted again.]
